elote queso

Elote Queso! A grill + app favorite all bubbled up in one skillet. Creamy melty queso, charred roasted corn, fresh jalapeño and garlic, and some cilantro and chili powder. YUM.

Elote Queso

butter

olive oil

jalapeño, minced

garlic,

flour

milk (we recommend evaporated milk

V&V Supremo® Chihuahua® Brand Quesadilla Cheese

salt

2-3 ears of corn, roasted (2 cups)

fresh cilantro, chopped

V&V Supremo® Queso Fresco

chili powder

over chips

CHIPS duh

Garlic and Jalapeño

Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the jalapeños and garlic and sauté for 5-10 minutes, until very soft and fragrant (but don&#8217;t burn or brown the garlic).

Flour, Milk, and Cheese

Add flour and stir until everything is coated – about one minute. Add the milk slowly and whisk until a smooth bubbly mixture comes together. Remove from heat and stir in the Chihuahua® Brand Quesadilla Cheese until smooth and melty. Low and slow!

Topping and serving: 

Season with salt and stir in most of the corn. Arrange a little &#8220;elotes pile&#8221; on top: remaining corn, cilantro, queso fresco, and chili powder. Best served warm with tortilla chips for dipping! YUUUUUM.

I can't wait to try this recipe. I love this delicious food. Thanks.

I was having people over today, and so I decided to try this, and it was so good!  I followed the recipe as it was written, and it was so easy.  I will definitely make this again!

I will say, I didn't take any of the jalapeño seeds out, so it was on the spicy side, so for people who don't like spicy foods, just don't include the seeds.  I like spicy foods, and so did everyone else, but just a heads up.

I have now shared this recipe with everyone I know. I made this for dinner tonight and I had to take the bowl off the table before my husband and I ate the entire batch. Absolutely delicious!

This is SO GOOD! Love how easy the queso base is. Definitely will be making this again!

I brought this to a small gathering for a Big Little Lies binge watch. I made  a double batch and, even after it cooled down, it was still creamy unlike some quesos. When I headed home, most of it was gone despite there only being 3 of us there...

The queso doesn't have a lot of kick (nor does elote) but I might add more depending on who will be eating it. Although the recipe as written was perfect for my crew. Also, FYI: I used roasted corn from Trader  Joe's  (frozen foods section).

This quest looks amazing! I’m going to add extra jalapeño, extra spicy please!

Looks delicious! I think I'll be trying this recipe at home. :)

I made this with a block of Monterey Jack cheese and it was great! I don’t know how much it differs from the brand they used, but we liked it!

This was delicious! I needed to make it gluten-free for a cookout, so I skipped the flour and added 4 oz of cream cheese instead. It turned out great!

I made this for a little gathering for the Big Little Lies finale and everyone loved it. I made a double batch and 3 of us ate most of it. (Yea, I'll say it...that's a lot of queso per person!) 

The V&amp;V Supremo Chihuahua cheese was a little pricey &amp; I had to go to a grocery store off my beaten path--but it was soooo good. I am sure you could make it with another cheese but I'll stick with the V&amp;V if I can. I cheated and used the roasted Mexican corn at Trader Joe's (frozen food aisle). Also, the dip doesn't have much kick so I may add more jalapenos or a bit of cayenne in the future. Although the heat level was perfect as written for my crew.
